Understanding Equipment


Beyond leveling, equipping heroes is a primary method for boosting specific stats. Each hero has six equipment slots:

  • Weapons
  • Armor
  • Shoes
  • Accessories
  • Artifacts
  • Gems/Stones (Treasures)

Artifact Tiers

All artifacts within a tier share upgrading costs and engulf values. Artifact rarity impacts effectiveness:

  • Orange (Highest)
  • Red
  • Green
  • Purple
  • Yellow
  • Blue

Orange and Red artifacts represent the highest tier. Some artifacts are hero-specific, granting unique abilities/stats when equipped. Exclusive artifact versions generally surpass their standard counterparts, offering an additional property exclusive to heroes of the correct faction (indicated by a faction icon).
